A couple of years ago, I met my amazing agent at the Maryland/ Delaware/ West Virginia summer conference. They've just announced a March one-day workshop. If you're looking for a truly informational, connected, encouraging group, check it out:

And of course, there's my current family of connected writers, the Florida SCBWI. What a treat to be on my very first writers' panel at the Miami conference this month. Here we are being introduced by Florida RA Linda Bernfeld:
Today I got to relive the weekend when website guru Curtis Sponsler posted a ton of pictures from the event. Click here to view the slideshow and see some articulate and bright writers/ editors/ agents/ illustrators dressed like Kings, Queens and White Rabbits. Thanks, Curtis!

What I'm reading now, via my local library:
Trent Reedy's Into the Dust, as recommended by so many people, especially Cheryl Klein, presenter and dancer ☺, and Sue Laneve, critiquer extraordinaire. More SCBWI connections. It just never ends!
I couldn't agree more. SCBWI has been an invaluable resource for me since my Scholastic editor mentioned it c.20 years ago.
ReplyDeleteNice to meet you in sunny FL, and thanks for the East Coast link. I just may go.

It was fantastic meeting you.
ReplyDeleteI'll look into Trent Reedy's book.
Great meeting you, too Nancy and Medeia! I highly recommend that conference in MD. Just heard they have Richard Peck as the keynote for their July conference, which I'd love to attend.
